Judge orders Donald Trump's strategist Steve Bannon to jail after losing contempt appeal

Bannon  ordered to jailA federal judge revoked the bail for Steve Bannon, the political strategist and former White House aide to former President Donald Trump, and ordered him to report to federal prison for his contempt of Congress conviction by July 1.

Bannon was convicted in July 2022 for defying a subpoena during the House investigation of the Capitol attack on Jan. 6, 2021. He was sentenced to four months in jail and fined $6,500.

He remained free while he appealed the conviction to the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals. A three-judge panel upheld the conviction unanimously May 10.

U.S. Attorney Matthew Graves urged U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols to jail Bannon because he is unlikely to reverse the verdict or win a new trial.

Bannon’s lawyer, David Schoen, argued Nichols had no authority to jail Bannon and doing so would be “gravely unjust and unfair.”

Trump’s gun license to be revoked following conviction, media reports say

Trymp.s gun license to be renewed

Donald Trump’s license to carry a gun is expected to be revoked by the New York City police department now that he has been convicted of a felony, according to reports on Wednesday evening.

The former president once boasted that he was so popular with the electorate, “I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn’t lose any voters.” He made the claim in January 2016 during the Iowa caucuses campaign.

Trump’s permit to carry a concealed weapon was suspended in April last year after he was indicted on charges of falsifying documents to cover up a payment to the adult film star Stormy Daniels, according to CNN.

Now, the NYPD is preparing to revoke Trump’s license altogether, CNN first reported, followed by NBC, with the latter citing a police spokesperson.

Trump ramps up violent rhetoric after guilty verdict – and GOP just keep ignoring it

Mike Johnson ignores Trump's violent rhetoric

Stop me if you’ve heard this one before – Donald Trump is in a raging fury about a decision that didn’t go his way.

So Trump casts himself as the victim of a rigged system while rallying Republican leaders to literally rig the system after the fact, to derail the decision, to appease his acrimony. Along the way, Trump ramps up violent rhetoric. But the Republicans remain in lockstep behind him, even as serious strife looms ahead.

Sounds like the 2020 election result and the Capitol riot that followed, right?

Trump election case in Georgia put on hold until outcome of appeal against Fani Willis

Fanni Willis appeal ongoing

The Georgia Court of Appeals on Wednesday temporarily halted the 2020 election racketeering case involving former President Donald Trump and 14 others until the appeal seeking the disqualification of Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis is resolved.

The late afternoon ruling, which came without elaboration, issues a stay in the election subversion case until the appellate court can weigh the evidence and make a decision. The court on Monday scheduled the appeal for Oct. 4, strongly suggesting that the case will not be tried before the Nov. 5 election.

Trump and eight other defendants are seeking to overturn a ruling by Fulton  County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee, who said in March that Willis can stay on the case despite their allegations of misconduct and financial conflict of interest. He had said he would allow some trial preparations to continue while the case is appealed.

Multiple Trump Witnesses Have Received Significant Financial Benefits From His Businesses, Campaign

Multiple perks for Trump witnesses

Nine witnesses in the criminal cases against former President Donald Trump have received significant financial benefits, including large raises from his campaign, severance packages, new jobs, and a grant of shares and cash from Trump’s media company.

The benefits have flowed from Trump’s businesses and campaign committees, according to a ProPublica analysis of public disclosures, court records and securities filings. One campaign aide had his average monthly pay double, from $26,000 to $53,500. Another employee got a $2 million severance package barring him from voluntarily cooperating with law enforcement. And one of the campaign’s top officials had her daughter hired onto the campaign staff, where she is now the fourth-highest-paid employee.

These pay increases and other benefits often came at delicate moments in the legal proceedings against Trump. One aide who was given a plum position on the board of Trump’s social media company, for example, got the seat after he was subpoenaed but before he testified.
